Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

I have never driven a tow truck.

I've driven one that's smaller than this one. It's based on a Chevy 3500. It's your pretty bog standard tow truck from the 80s. It's a 1979, from one of my favorite tow truck companies around.

Actually, they're kinda far away - but boy are those guys able to get the job done.

I don't get 'towed'. I get extracted. The difference is starting at about $600 in difference.

It's a long story but I almost started an international incident - getting a truck mired miles into a trail that goes along the power lines that come in from Canada. They had to shut those power lines down and remove the truck with a helicopter. If it wasn't done in 72 hours, the fine was like $25,000 a day - and we had to coordinate all that. There was fire, police, border patrol, etc...

It looks damn near like a semi!

It is. It's just got a different body on the back. It's the same thing you'd find hauling freight - except it's got a different transmission than most of those. This is only a 4 speed vs a 13 speed. Though, in its era, it might have been a 15 speed.
